But the best way to retaliate would be an immediate 220% tax on all already ordered and signed deals for Boeing products coming into Canada including orders from WestJet and Air Canada on all 737s.

If AC is still in line to receive new 787s, then they too should be taxed.
Big difference between subsidies and "bail outs" of which Bombardier has received from the federal and PQ governments basically every year since 1986.
Plus they now build CRJ's (all or partially) in Mexico and even Morocco...
A massive money loosing (ex-crown corporation) corporation from the get go and government sponsored boondoggle - Mssrs Trudeau must be very proud.
